I am a senior mechanical design professional with over 12 years of experience in manufacturing-focused engineering environments. My background combines detailed 3D CAD modeling, mechanism and motion system design, and real-world production exposure. I specialize in taking ideas or rough concepts and developing them into fully engineered mechanical solutions. My work includes mechanism synthesis, force and load calculations, hydraulic and actuator-driven systems, detailed assembly modeling, and manufacturing-ready drawing packages. I have extensive experience using Autodesk Inventor to develop parametric models and complex assemblies that are built and used in real industrial environments. I have led and contributed to projects involving reverse engineering, special-purpose machinery, mechanical tool design, and system redesign for improved performance and manufacturability. My approach is practical and grounded in production realities, ensuring that designs are not only functional but also buildable and maintainable. I am particularly strong in mechanism and motion-based systems, where careful consideration of force paths, tolerances, and dynamic behavior is critical. I enjoy solving technically challenging mechanical problems and producing clear, structured engineering documentation. Services I offer include: Mechanism and linkage design Special purpose machinery design Reverse engineering and redesign 3D CAD modeling and assemblies Manufacturing drawing packages Motion studies and technical calculations Concept development and technical refinement If you are looking for a mechanical design partner who can move from concept to a technically sound, production-ready solution, I would be glad to discuss your project.

I'm a Mechanical Engineering graduate from the University of Johannesburg with hands-on experience in CAD modeling, simulation, and technical design across mechanical and industrial applications. My core toolkit includes SolidWorks and CFD analysis, which I've applied to projects ranging from structural design to thermal and fluid systems. My engineering credibility is backed by a peer-reviewed conference paper on CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced polymer) prosthetic knee design — work that combined materials selection, structural analysis, and design-for-manufacture principles. I hold independent certifications in engineering project management, BIM, applied sustainability, and AI in infrastructure, and I bring a detail-oriented, deadline-driven approach shaped by both academic research and industry delivery. Whether it's part design, assembly modeling, simulation, or technical drafting, I aim to deliver clean, manufacturable, well-documented work.
